Peppermint Mocha Protein Balls 

If the holidays had a flavor, it would definitely be peppermint mocha. These no-bake Peppermint Mocha Protein Balls are festive, indulgent, and secretly packed with protein thanks to our Elite Protein Powder. They’re perfect for holiday snacking, post-workout treats, or a healthier dessert option.


Ingredients

  • 2–3 servings Koia Elite 32g Protein Powder

  • ½ cup almond butter

  • ¼ cup maple syrup

  • ½ cup almond flour

  • ⅛–¼ teaspoon all-natural peppermint oil (a little goes a long way!)

  • ¾ cup dark chocolate, melted

  • Crushed dye-free candy canes, for topping

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the protein powder, almond butter, maple syrup, and almond flour.

  2. Add peppermint oil and mix well until a thick, dough-like consistency forms. If the dough feels too dry, add a small splash of maple syrup; if too sticky, add a bit more almond flour.

  3. Roll the mixture into bite-sized balls and place them on a parchment-lined tray.

  4. Dip each ball into melted dark chocolate and place back on the tray.

  5. Sprinkle with crushed dye-free candy canes before the chocolate sets.

  6. Refrigerate for 15–20 minutes until firm.
